  Back at the wholesale market, Xiao Yu told Lao Zhang about all that had happened today. Lao Zhang chuckled and patted Xiao Yu on the shoulder, "How was it? I knew you'd be fine, Xiao Yu. This little test doesn't count for much. Even if it were the college entrance exams, you'd still get first place easily."

  Looking at Lao Zhang's appearance, Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh. How could this father be so confident in himself?

  Actually, Old Zhang said this kind of thing naturally has his reason. Since Xiao Yu came to the wholesale market, he saw that this young man was diligent and hardworking, and would definitely have a bright future. A few days ago, when Xiao Yu was reviewing his lessons, he stayed up all night for a whole week, which made Old Zhang feel that this child's perseverance was amazing. If this child can't get the first place, then Old Zhang dare to write his own name upside down.

  Xiao Yu asked about the business in his own store, and Old Zhang gave a thumbs up, praising Zhou Xin for being quick and having a good foundation in making noodles, saying she was doing a great job.

  Found a good partner, Xiao Yu was also very happy, back to the store, saw Zhou Xin was kneading dough, there were five or six customers in the store, now it's one thirty in the afternoon, at this non-meal time, having such a high occupancy rate is already quite good.

  Looking at Zhou Xin's busy appearance, Xiao Yu knew she hadn't had lunch yet and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

  "Xiao Xin jie, let's go get some pulled noodles!"

  "Ah, boss, it's okay, I can handle it." When Xiaoyu called her Xiao Xin Jie, Zhou Xin felt a bit embarrassed. After all, he was the boss and she was just an employee, how could she let him keep calling her sister?

  Xiao Yu put on an apron, washed his hands, and took over from Zhou Xin. Zhou Xin couldn't compete with him and had to retreat to the side, she also wanted to take the opportunity to observe Xiao Yu's craftsmanship.

  This was the first time Zhou Xin saw Little Yu pull noodles, and as soon as he did, his hands waved like wings, and all that could be heard was the 'slap slap' sound of the noodles hitting the chopping board. In mid-air, silver threads danced, and in just ten seconds, enough noodles for seven or eight people were pulled.

  Zhou Xin watched in amazement, if it were himself, he would probably need five or six minutes to pull the noodles well. This little boss really has a special skill, you know, the shorter the time to pull the noodles, the better they taste, and this skill is beyond his own abilities.

  The customers next to him saw Xiao Yu's skillful noodles and also cheered, everyone knew that this young master had real skills.

  Before long, the noodles were ready, and Xiao Yu asked Zhou Xin to add two more portions, leaving them for the two of them to eat at noon.

  This is the first time Zhou Xin has had Xiao Yu's spicy sauce noodles. Although she did business for an entire morning, she didn't even have a chance to taste one bowl. Now that she's eating it, she finally understands why this store's business is so good. The rich broth and the fragrant sauce that assaults her nostrils, paired with handmade pulled noodles, are simply a perfect match.

  "Xiao Xin, don't eat so late from now on, it's not good for your stomach. No matter how busy you are with work, you have to take out time to eat. And there is an electric rice cooker in the house, when you don't want to eat noodles, you can buy some vegetables at the market and cook something yourself. I'll give you an extra 100 yuan each month as food money." Xiao Yu said while eating his noodles and talking to Zhou Xin.

  Zhou Xin was stunned for a moment. Before coming to Shanghai, she had also worked in other cities, and every boss was thinking of ways to save money, some even deliberately withholding wages. But this little boss in front of her was different, and he even gave her meal allowance, which was something she had never encountered before.

  At the same time, a different kind of gratitude rose from the bottom of my heart. This delicious noodle dish that I was eating suddenly lost its flavor.

  Xiao Yu was too busy lowering his head to eat noodles and didn't notice that Zhou Xin's eyes had become slightly moist.

  In the evening, Xiao Yu closed the door ahead of time and bought some fresh vegetables at the wholesale market. He also bought a piece of meat from Old Su and a big carp from Li Tou'er, who sold fish. Then he invited Old Zhang and Zhou Xin to set up a table in his store, celebrating Xiao Yu's admission to Hongguang Middle School and welcoming Zhou Xin to join Xiao Yu's noodle shop.

  Old Zhang also brought several baskets of big buns and half a case of beer to add to the excitement.

  Ever since that time when he got drunk with Master Guo and lost consciousness, Xiao Yu had always been cautious of alcohol and would only drink two cups before stopping. Zhou Xin, being a big girl, only drank one cup of beer, while Old Zhang was reckless and almost finished half a case of beer by himself.

  The three of them ate until nine o'clock, and only then did they withdraw from the wine table. Old Zhang was already drunk and dizzy, and Xiao Yu reminded Zhou Xin to lock the door at night, and he himself supported Old Zhang and walked towards his home in the residential area.

  At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the lights in the residential area were dim. There were hardly any pedestrians, and it was very quiet.

  Lao Zhang's home is located in the innermost part of the residential area, a seven-story flat-roof building built over 20 years ago. At that time, such houses were built in large quantities, and except for different door numbers, the buildings looked almost the same. For first-time visitors, it was easy to lose their bearings.

  Nowadays, these buildings are somewhat outdated. Not only do they look old-fashioned, but the seven-story building also has no elevator. People living on the seventh floor climb stairs every day and feel exhausted.

  Even so, house prices here have been pushed up to nearly 10,000 yuan per square meter, leaving people stunned.

  Xiao Yu supported Lao Zhang's head and walked along the small path in the residential area, the road was quiet and deserted, with no pedestrians.

  Xiao Yu thought to himself that Lao Ye was at an age where he should be able to control himself, but whenever he encountered wine, he would lose all sense of restraint. What if something bad happened as a result?

  Suddenly, a clear and shrill cry for help came from a woman in the distance ahead, "Someone's coming! Robbery!"

  A scuffling sound came over, a woman let out a cry of surprise, as if she had fallen to the ground. A black shadow flew towards Xiaoyu's direction.

  Xiao Yu's mind moved, and he happened to have encountered a robbery. He looked around and found that there was a long bench next to him for residents to rest on. Xiao Yu helped Old Zhang lie down on the bench and stood back in the middle of the road himself.

  At this time, the black shadow rushed over from a distance, already less than ten meters away from Xiaoyu. His figure was also exposed under the dim streetlights. The thief was about 1.8 meters tall, covering his face with a large handkerchief, making it impossible to see his features. One hand grasped a small knife, and the other clenched a white lady's leather bag, obviously the loot he had just stolen. A big red arrow simultaneously appeared in Xiaoyu's field of vision.

  "Thief, attack power level 2, medium life value, weapon - spring knife, attack power +1. Combat assessment - defeating him is as simple as eating chocolate beans."

  Before he could finish speaking, the thief had already arrived in front of Little Yu.

  "Get out of the way! Mind your own business!" The thief waved his spring knife and made a gesture to stab Xiaoyu, indicating that he should let him pass.

  Xiao Yu's lips curled up into a faint cold smile, and with a flash of movement, he stepped aside, clearing the way.

  The thief saw Xiaoyu open the way and didn't stop, continuing to run forward. However, when he passed by Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu suddenly kicked out a foot, which happened to kick the thief's small belly.

  The thief was caught off guard, let out a muffled grunt, and his body flew backward, heavily slamming into the utility pole at the rear side, instantly feeling unbearable pain in his abdomen and back, rolling around on the ground.

  Xiao Yu picked up the thief's bag that had been dropped on the ground, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from the front again. A small team of neighborhood security guards wearing red armbands rushed over in a hurry.

  "Halt! Don't run!" a militiaman shouted loudly at Xiaoyu, pointing at him.

  Xiao Yu was stunned, what's going on? Did they take themselves as thieves?

  Initiate reconnaissance technique, in front of me is a pile of red arrows.

  "United Defense Team Member, Attack Power Level 2, Medium Health, Weapon - Wooden Stick, Attack Power +1. Attack Method: Mobbing, Combat Strength Evaluation - It takes some effort to deal with them."

  The militiaman running in the front didn't say a word, raised the wooden stick in his hand and aimed at Xiaoyu's head, giving him a hard hit. Xiaoyu saw that he didn't ask any questions and took action, so he also got angry and dodged the stick with a swift movement, counterattacking with a kick, kicking the militiaman's buttocks.

  The militiaman let out a loud "aiyo" and fell over onto his butt.

  This stirred up a hornet's nest, and the several joint defense team members behind him saw that this little guy was quite evil, a hooligan who also knew martial arts? He actually dared to hit a joint defense team member, how could this be allowed? Without saying a word, several people simultaneously swung their wooden sticks, weaving a stick net, and rushed towards Xiaoyu with a flurry of blows.

  Xiao Yu was now highly concentrated, focusing on the falling point of the wooden stick, dodging and weaving. The militiamen used all their might, but it seemed like shooting a cannon at a fly, not even touching Xiao Yu's side.

  After several attacks, the joint defense team members were slightly exhausted, and seeing that they couldn't hit anyone, they relaxed a bit. Xiaoyu cleverly dodged several times and miraculously escaped from the rain of sticks. With lightning-fast movements, she threw out two punches, "slap slap", and knocked down the first one cleanly. With a kick to the back leg, she kicked away the sneak attacker who pounced from behind. Then, with a turn of her body, she delivered three punches and two kicks, and the remaining three joint defense team members also fell to the ground.

  These moves were smooth and connected, and even Xiao Yu himself felt quite satisfied.

  "Hint: Self-created combination punch, attack power +10, level primary, proficiency 1%, please name the combination punch."

  Xiao Yu was taken aback, he didn't expect to come up with a new boxing technique, this is an unexpected gain. His original boxing technique only had one set of 'Basic Boxing' that couldn't be upgraded, but now this boxing technique is his own creation, and it looks like it can still be upgraded as proficiency increases. Not bad, not bad, what should he call it?

  Before Xiaoyu could think of a name, footsteps came from the front again. In the flash of a person's shadow, Xiaoyu couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air. This time, the people who came were actually police officers with real guns!

  "Damn it!"

  "Naming successful, self-created combination punch name is - His Grandma's."
